Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Fragrance allergens and undisclosed components on the Becca Cosmetics and not on the Bobbi Brown.
  • We flag Fragrance allergens and sensitizers, Heavy metals in synthetic pigments, 1,4-dioxane (contamination in emulsifiers/surfactants) and Microplastic shedding from polymer matrix on the Bobbi Brown and not on the Becca Cosmetics.
  • The Becca Cosmetics is Glycerin, silicones, pigments, film-formers (typical liquid cosmetic gloss) where the Bobbi Brown is liquid pigments, film-forming polymers, waterproofing agents, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 45 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Becca Cosmetics is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the Bobbi Brown grade, at 35% confidence against 78%, because it discloses less.

Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
